    Wests Tigers and former kiwis prop Russell Packer has been hit with a grade three dangerous high tackle charge by the NRL judiciary, in what ended up being a disastrous return to action after 14 months

    Wests Tigers and former kiwis prop Russell Packer has been hit with a grade three dangerous high tackle charge by the NRL judiciary, in what ended up being a disastrous return to action after 14 months

    - article from www.rugbyleague.co.nz

    During his side's 14-6 loss to the Raiders, Packer was sinbinned for a professional foul, and was later penalised for two late shots - the second of which saw him placed on report.

    Packer will miss two games with an early guilty plea, but could miss three should he fight the charge and lose.
